Oh my dearest Soul, you are most kind.
You give peace and solace ever to my mind.
You keep your arms always opened and stretched,
for you always hugged me and embraced.
You never desert me, even close friends betray,
you are the best friend, for you didn’t let me go astray.
Nor you leaves me alone even after death,
the sages and scriptures confirm this firm faith.
You have been always with me since countless previous lives,
and will remain with me till the end of future lives.
You are the Supreme guide to me for the ultimate liberation,
which are called Nirvana, Moksha, Kaiwalya in mention.
You are the most adorable than all the deities,
this has been realized by all the yogis.
So, let me adore you only, o my dearest soul,
to attain and achieve my life’s final goal.
Namaste to you! _/\_
